Another Blog...another announcement

Eat It and Like It.com is Savannah's fastest growing website for foodies.

This Eating and Liking thing has taken on a life of it’s own….but I am having an absolute blast.

The analogy I have used most when I am asked about what the last year of my life has been like is this “Well, back in October of last year I got into a canoe and started paddling. By December, we felt the currents tugging at us as we started moving down the river…by February, I was going over Niagra Falls (in a good way of course).”

You likely know by now about our TV Show Eat It and Like Itcoming to WJCL-TV in Savannah on September 24th. It will also air on Hilton Head Island and Beaufort’s WHHI-TV, dates there are in the works. For more information on the TV Show CLICK HERE. That, however, is just a tiny bit of what we have in store for you coming very soon. Like what? I thought you’d never ask.

**The Eat Squad. It’s been in the works for weeks (actually months). I’ve gotten many inquiries about it from people who want to be a part of it. Regular people that you may or may not know reviewing restaurants. Not my opinion, theirs. If you are thinking about trying a spot out, someone else’s review may make a difference. Up to you. Sure, you have Trip Advisor, Yelp, Urbanspoon and all that stuff, but the Eat Squad will know when a restaurant has had a change in management. A new Chef, some new specials, a new menu. It’s your friends and neighbors eating at your favorite spots. Look for that in September.

**Also this Fall…. Eat It and Like It –The Tour. Great, just what Savannah needed, right? Another tour? Well, this one is different. This one doesn’t exist. Yet. Beginning this Fall, I will be taking my guests to a few different fine dining establishments in Savannah. Each stop will feature a menu sampling from that restaurant and a perfect wine pairing. I am constantly asked if it’s a progressive dinner. Well, some tours may be. Others may not. It’s up to the chefs, who I’m sure will be driven by what is fresh and available to them at any given time. We are even talking about doing beer pairing tours…more information coming soon on all of it.

Obviously the TV show is taking up most of our time right now. We just completed our first round of casting interviews on River Street. Great great turnout before the rains washed us out. We will be talking to more people as we get closer. If you haven’t signed up yet for the Casting Call….do so here…. We want to talk to people of all ages about food. No trick questions, no special skills needed. We aren’t looking for people to cook, we are looking for people to talk. The show has already begun production and the buzz continues around town.

Before we go, for now….want to point something one of our latest recipes out to you. Sure we update them regularly, but this one is amazing. Try yourself a Watermelon Mint Julep right here. Perfect cocktail for this ridiculous summer we’re kinda enjoying. When you do….Raise your glass, because I’ll be doing the same. Why?
